Qué cubre este vídeo

Henry Mickel and Bayley Richardson, two 24-year-old sailors from Western Australia, are currently circumnavigating the globe aboard their Beneteau 423, *Revelry*.9:42 With minimal prior sailing experience, the pair purchased the vessel in Greece and spent 18 months working in Australia’s offshore oil industry to fund the expedition.33:08 Their preparation relied on research, advice from experienced sailors, and professional maritime skills gained from commercial fishing and offshore work.12:03 During a 400-mile passage from Crete to Sicily, the crew encountered an unforecasted weather system caused by two colliding low-pressure cells, which resulted in severe conditions.36:26 The experience highlighted the necessity of reliable weather forecasting and thorough vessel preparation for offshore passages. The duo views the sailboat primarily as a vehicle for travel, surfing, and fishing, though they increasingly appreciate the technical art of sailing as they progress toward their goal of returning the boat to Australia.18:56
